Default Mitchell OD Shift Lever Clearance

Just finished installing a Mitchell synchro transmission and Mitchell overdrive in my 29 roadster. The overdrive shift lever hits the seat when in low (pulled back) position and hits the transmission gear shift lever when the transmission is in high gear position and the overdrive shift lever is in high (pushed forward). The OD shift lever is adjustable on its spline but I cannot find a position that solves this problem. Has anyone experienced this situation? One thing I wonder is if my seat cushion is too big i.e. not original size and shape. I also wonder if there is a different OD shift lever that solves the problem.

Thanks
